This PR changes the API of the EventProcessor class:
The eventExtTrigger() method now expects a return value. When returning false, a currently in-progress call to decode() or decodeUntil() is terminated, and must be resumed by calling decode() or decodeUntil() again on the same message buffer to evolve the state of the decoder correctly.
This change to the API was necessary to facilitate terminating the decoding process when a trigger event is received. Without this change to the API, there is no way to interrupt and resume the decoding process.
I also considered switching to an iterator-based design altogether, but that could cut into the performance, because in the case of vector events, the iterator has to remember not just which byte it is processing, but also which bit.
